I only imagined what music technology would be when I started over 35 years ago. When I first started with Aerosmith, we didn't have DAWs. Today I'm revealing isolated stems never heard publicly. The journey is everything.

40 years ago today, Live Aid changed music forever.



Which of the two July 13, 1985 Live Aid concerts would you rather see in person?



🎹 FUN FACT: Friend and collaborator Phil Collins was the only artist to perform live at both Wembley and JFK Stadium on the same day. He played in London, jumped on a Concorde jet, then took a helicopter straight to the Philly stage.

A great memory. This was at the release of my Clint Eastwood: ICON book, celebrating Clint Eastwood’s incredible career.

Fast forward to now, I finally picked up the new Good, Bad & Ugly 4K special edition. One of my favorite films and a perfect match for the book. It is always cool when the things you love, like films, books, and the people behind them, end up connected in your life.

What's in the book? Watch this: https://youtu.be/HC2QXrhuUYg
